slippermania!

Nancy has written up the pattern for her grandmother’s crazy slippers to share with all you knitting fiends out there, so everyone get on board the slipper train! (I’m thinking a pair in cotton might be just the ticket for summer … )Random Ugly Technicolor Dream Slippers
Nancy’s basic rules:
* Use size 9 needles
* Buy your yarn from garage sales, or get the cheapest & brightest stuff you can find at the store
* Randomly snip off a color when you feel like it, reach into your bag without looking, and tie on whatever new color you grab (Yes, I said

Thanks for this pattern! I haven’t thought about these slippers in years, but I remember having a pair when I was around 9 years old. My Nanna gave them to me — I think they were red and gold. This is going to be a fun project!

A trick that makes the heel much easier is to runs a piece of yar through the cast on stitches of the center section and cinch it tight. This make a better heel shape and you then only need to sew the 2 outer sections together.
